220: 143: Exposing Suo Lun’s Identity!
A Mysterious and Charming Night!
Suo Lun and Turing Duo had been classmates for over half a year, and it wasn’t until today, outside the boundaries of the Rage Wave Kingdom, that he finally t her, which was nothing like he had imagined.
Indeed, Turing Duo was an even more exceptional student than Suo Lun; rarely seen from enrollnt to graduation.
Not only because she was the daughter of Duke Turing Tuo, commander-in-chief of the military, but also because she had been working covertly for the kingdom since her teenage years.
The reason he recognized her at a glance was entirely because she bore so resemblance to Gui Qinshao.
Gui Qinshao was the daughter of Turing Si, and Turing Duo was Turing Si’s niece.
The won of the Turing Clan all shared a distinct feature: high noses, deep-set eyes, and even the color of their pupils differed from most people.
The Turing Duo before him was no exception, her mixed heritage was almost as apparent as Turing Si’s, endowing her with a distinctly exotic allure.
When she entered the hall, there was but one thought in all the won’s minds.
Previously, they thought Yan Shuang lacked femininity, that she was born in the wrong gender.
But now, they realized who it was that truly seed born in the wrong gender.
She and Gui Qinshao should be cousins, with so resemblance in their faces, but their styles could not be more dissimilar.
Gui Qinshao’s face was stunning and compelling, like a bright red, blood-dripping rose.
While Turing Duo’s face was cold and detached, her lips even had a transparent quality.
She was extrely tall, almost one hundred and eighty centiters.
Her figure wasn’t thin, but rather strong and toned, resembling a female panther.
Especially her super-long legs—muscular and springy, clearly brimming with combat prowess.
In short, she was a great beauty who seed to be born the wrong gender.
And even for a formal event, she did not wear a dress but instead donned a Samurai’s outfit.
Truly a woman who marched to the beat of her own drum.
…
Lord Ji Gang of Tianye City, accompanied by two guests, ca to the center of the hall and said, “Allow to introduce the honored guests of the evening, a personage comparable to a princely heir…”
“I’ll introduce myself,” quipped the man with a jade-like complexion, smiling.
“My na is Fang Qing Shu, a disciple of the Dragon Temple.”
“Turing Duo, Rage Wave Kingdom,” said Turing Duo.
Both of their self-introductions were undeniably succinct.
And Suo Lun gleaned the significance behind Fang Qing Shu’s four words—Dragon Temple.
Who in this world could claim to be a disciple of the Dragon Temple?
Zhi Ning could not, as she was only studying there.
If ng Tuoluo had stayed back then and managed to advance to Holy Maiden and went on to cultivate in the Firmant Pavilion, only then could she call herself a disciple of the Dragon Temple.
What about Zhi Yan then?
Could she consider herself a disciple of the Dragon Temple?
Suo Lun was uncertain.
Because anyone who claims to be a disciple of the Dragon Temple, no matter which kingdom they visit, will be regarded as a guest of the highest order, as every word they utter represents the will of the Dragon Temple.
And that status was sothing not even great masters like Byron could have.
For they might represent art, but cannot speak for the will of the Dragon Temple.
So the question arises, why would a disciple of the Dragon Temple who typically does not ddle in worldly affairs attend a banquet in a neutral city?
What exactly was his purpose for being here?
…
Lord Ji Gang of Tianye City proceeded to introduce Fang Qing Shu and Turing Duo to the distinguished mbers present.
“This is the pillar of Tianye City, the young master of the Silver Wolf Legion, Miss Yan Shuang.”
Fang Qing Shu’s gaze fell upon Yan Shuang’s face, revealing a perfectly asured mix of admiration and astonishnt as he said, “Miss Yan, greetings.”
Yan Shuang replied, “Master Fang, greetings.
Miss Turing, hello.”
Turing Duo nodded in acknowledgnt, her gaze lingering on Yan Shuang’s face for an extended period, bordering on impoliteness, as if probing for sothing.
“Miss Yan Shuang, do you have a sister nad Yan Nai’er?” asked Turing Duo.
“That was my previous na,” Yan Shuang admitted straightforwardly, which made Suo Lun’s heart skip a beat.
He had been eager to know the exact answer and had not expected her to admit it outright.
Then…
what exactly had happened for Yan Nai’er to undergo such a dramatic change, to completely transform from the inside out.
If she was truly only twenty-two years old this year and her martial skills had already surpassed those of a Dragon Warrior, what had occurred to her?
Turing Duo said, “About a year ago, we happened to cross paths at Royal City Academy.”
At those words, Suo Lun’s heart skipped again.
What did Turing Duo an by this?
Was she trying to rub salt into a wound?
Yan Nai’er’s most morable mont at Royal City Academy was wielding a precious sword to force a marriage on Suo Lun, a scene she would likely rather forget.
With an undisturbed expression, Yan Shuang said, “I seem to have forgotten about it.
At that ti, Miss Turing was also present.”
“Compared to back then, Miss Yan Shuang seems to have undergone earth-shattering changes.
I truly dare not acknowledge you.
Even your martial skills have improved tenfold, if not more,” observed Turing Duo.
At these words, even Suo Lun’s gaze shrank; what did Turing Duo an by this?
His keen senses instinctively detected a whiff of danger.
Ignoring Suo Lun, City Lord Ji Gang moved on to introduce Fang Qing Shu and Turing Duo to another elder.
Not to be outdone, Fang Qing Shu reached out a hand toward Suo Lun, asking, “May I know who this is?”
“Lan Xiao,” Suo Lun said.
“Miss Yan Shuang’s male companion.”
“Pleased to et you,” Fang Qing Shu greeted Suo Lun with a handshake and then released it.
Yan Shuang said nothing and didn’t even change her expression, but inside, she was startled.
Her male companion was clearly Lanling.
Why did he say Lan Xiao?
